DEVICES AND METHODS FOR SIMULTANEOUS MECHANOCHEMICAL AND ELECTROCHEMICAL REACTIONS

Abstract: the present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for simultaneously implementing mechanochemical and electrochemical synthesis conditions. with respect to the method, the method may be configured to improve one or more reaction metric such as increasing product yield, reducing organic solvent consumption, reducing the reaction time, reducing the amount of, or completely eliminating, at least one toxic reagent or solvent, or enabling electrochemical synthesis of the chemical product without complete solubility of the organic substrate in the organic solvent. with respect to the apparatus, the apparatus is configured to define a reaction area between an anode and cathode that can be mechanochemically agitated to improve synthesis without disrupting the electrochemical reaction.
